Property code: OC-HH120

This cheerful property is located in the cosy cosmopolitan district of Mumbles, the gateway to the Gower Peninsula’s coastline with a rich history and spectacular landscapes. Set within a quiet cul-de-sac, this peaceful cottage is perfect for small families and one waggy-tailed friend to sniff out more of what the Welsh coast has to offer.

Leaving your sandy boots and coats at the door, gather your guests in the open-plan living area and get cosy in front of the toasty wood burner, pup in tow. Huge sofas are fabulous for curling up after a long day of trekking, while over in the kitted-out kitchen, your head chef will like taking to the stove and serving up hearty dishes, with titbits for Rover. Wake up surrounded by charming decor in the three first floor bedrooms and take yourself downstairs to stick the kettle on. Give your pooch their morning ear rub and play fetch on the patio area dotted with pretty plants, shrubs and trees.

A popular holiday destination all year-round, the Gower Peninsula is more than just a pretty face. Known for being the UK’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1956, it''s retained its title for its golden, sandy beaches, wild moorland and dramatic limestone cliffs. Go for walkies along the waymarked pathway to spend a day having a ball with your happy hound. You’ll also find independent boutiques, galleries, restaurants and their renowned first-class ice cream that comes in a variety of mouthwatering flavours. Hikers can pick up the Wales Coast Path here and enjoy scenic walks along the 186-mile stretch, stopping for a picnic as you go.

Oyster Cottage was a perfect home-from-home for our family holiday. The little details like finding family games in the drawers, a well-sized bathroom with a bath and quiet location made it ideal for a break with young children. The fantastically well equipped kitchen also made it possible for cooking family meals at home with little fuss. A super Read moreplace to stay! Hide

My 2 adult sons & I loved staying in this spacious cottage with our yorkie. It was very clean, comfortable & homely with lovely views of the castle & bay. The garden is pretty & has a deck where we enjoyed sitting in the sunshine during the evening. It has great amenities & is close to a variety of shops. We hope to stay here again another year.

Parking is the major issue, with very narrow road access and parking of neighbours cars. The step down floor to the rear bedroom is dangerous, the floors upstairs are creaky and the door handles are noisy which makes it difficult when getting up in the night without disturbing friends. Also, the bathroom needs a proper shower over the bath

The cottage was lovely and in a perfect position. On street parking was a big bonus, and a great pub a couple of minutes walk away was also fantastic. The beds were comfortable, the cottage was warm, the showers were hot and everything was lovely and clean. The one thing we were not so keen about was the online instruction manual. We later founRead mored one in the cottage but initially thought that the online one was the only one. I also did not like having to pay an extra 20 for insurance. It should be included in the price. These are two minor gripes though. Hide

The house was in a convenient location and the garage was a big bonus. I think a welcome tray with a pint of milk would have been useful and also feel it unreasonable that no toilet rolls were supplied but hope that was a oversight.
